Inspirational Card Sketches



I used the layout from Inspirational Card Sketches for this card as well as the colour theme Buzz Off from Cute Card Thursday (black and yellow).

Papertake Weekly Challenge

Hat - Rose Pink and Blossom
Hair and Basket - Cool Greys

Sugar Bowl Challenge 20



This is my attempt at Gayle's sketch over at the Sugar Bowl. The please include option was paper piecing. It is the first time I have used the paper piecing technique, but still prefer to colour the image myself.
